The rest of your state comes up here.I vacation on the redneck riviera. if I wanna see the rockies it’s alberta. -
Lange 1 might be attainable somewhere near that price as well.
-
Then why do all you fuckers vacation up here?yeah and it’s been changed. if you have a hard on for something that seemed a little racist 30 years ago I really don’t know what to tell you.
and god’s country is texas or tennessee.-

I am fine. Just saying that places that have names that are KKK are racist and the time for that shit has passed.well you know what? you gotta just keep livin’, man. you’ll be fine.
We're don't do that shit up here in God's country (no Blake Shelton homo). -
Fat Tony is Seal Team 6? I need to reevaluate my life.Hi Cutthroat? No mf this is Fat Tony -
I grew up in CO. Went to school in SA. Worked in TX for a couple years and then came back to CO. Things you grew up with that you thought were normal were often not normal to most of the country. I love the people of Texas and i even married one, but there is a lot of blatantly racist shit there.dallas.
so I guess you never hunted at koon kreek klub? -
You from Vidor?
just breathe into a paper bag you delicate little flower. -
Uh, the Koffee Kup Kafe, all lined up on the sign so it clearly reads KKK, is just trying to be cute? Let's agree to disagree there.I think it's just trying to be cute. I wouldn't read too much into it. Plus, they have pie. Which I don't think is a geometry thing. -
It was probably 20 years ago that i saw it. It made an impression, to say the least.Yeah, at least a decade ago. -
Did they take Kafe out of the name? Most racist thing I've ever seen in person.Wasn't sure since I didn't make it, but I would've if I could've.
Pickles and onions. Koffee Kup (Hico, TX) -
Appropriate for a 13 year old that has seen the first one?Saw it tonight and really enjoyed it. If you liked the first one you’ll probably like this one. -

Yep. Go rent a house or condo in Telluride or Aspen. All the shit you want to do is there. Plus good dining and spa shit.
Telluride is far superior to Aspen if 4 wheeling is on the agenda. So many great trails in that part of the state. And, as you mentioned, great food choices.

The turbos are a practical bargain, considering SRM makes a cartridge section and compressor cover that drops in. It's having to spend the same amount of money on downpipes and again in labor to get it all buttoned up that's frustrating.
I have a friend at SRM who's writing their tunes now. You should see what our cars are capable of on E85.
Then again, it now takes a Stage-2 RS7 to keep up with a M5 Comp and a flash to the Bimmer results in low 10s, nothing else needed.Yeah, these cars can put down some ridiculous numbers. I was really only considering an APR Stage I tune. Didn't want to go nuts. But the cost of replacing turbos (quoted at around $8k from my indie shop - same guy that would be doing the tune) made the decision for me. Faster would be fun, but like I said, I've yet to run into a situation where I didn't have enough power, unless you count the one time I was going up I-70 behind an E63s and couldn't keep up when he opened it up.

I think purchasing departments feel their role in organizations is to bring progress to a grounding halt.We call SAP “Stop All Progress”. The only thing worse than it is our purchasing folks who sit on PO’s until our contractors take other work and we are left searching for another contractor or having to re-bid the job. -

we nailed the hatch a couple of years ago and for about a 3 hour stretch we were just laughing so hard our stomachs hurt. it was just too stupid.
Yeah, we've only truly hit the hatch once, several years ago. We were a few days late last year, but still plenty of action.

Eh, I'm not sure about that is entirely accurate. In theory yeah, but people discount the 'in control' bit. I've built some motors pushing the 1400bhp mark that are essentially useless for the vast majority of drivers and would frankly scare the shit out of them. Everyone feels like they want to go faster until they cross that very fine line to too fast and then it's PTSD every time you are behind the wheel.
True. They want to go faster until they hit that point.
My wife used to think my car was too fast for her. Then, a few weeks ago I took her SUV and the kids and we went on a road trip with my dad for 6 days. When we got back, we were going somewhere in my car and out of the blue she said "I love driving your car". Uh, oh.

yeah dude, unless you are racing on tracks, there is absolutely no need for more power than what a stock m850 delivers.
I have an S6, but same deal.

yep, crazy drunk. supposedly when she dies they're going to lose the license to run that jet boat which is a damn shame.
Leroy always told people that the lease expired when he did, so I'm not sure what the deal is with it. Glad it's still there for now, though. We floated down there last summer during the Salmonfly hatch.

i'm 1.5 hours from the gunny and float it annually (although always day floats from smith fork down to pleasure park or pleasure park down)...have camped in the canyon but haven't been able to do the multi-day fishing trip yet. tentative summer plan...leaving CO and headed to pinedale, fish for 3 days, then headed to paradise valley to fish for another 3 days. want to do 1 day at a spring creek, guided floats the rest.
Gunny from Smith Fork to the PP is one of my favorite places on earth. So beautiful and so damn many fish in there.
Were you ever able to run up the river in a jet boat with Leroy? He died a couple years ago but was the owner of the PP. His wife owns it now. He was a fucking character. On the water by 5:30 and drunk by 1 or 2 every day.

Just driving it should dissuade you
True, but everyone wants to go faster. That said, I think I've found my limit as far as how fast I want a car that I drive on the street. I've yet to find a situation where I do not have enough power.

Fuck its fun to drive. Even at 80mph it will put your head into the headrest getting to 100+. And I've been taking it easy, not slamming the accelerator to the floor. Breaking it in before I try out launch mode.
Not going to go with the tune just yet. Need to race against my boss with his Porsche 911 Turbo (I will lose, but probably not embarrassed) and another co-workers Jaguar F-Type (will be close).
Since the engine is the same as the 850i, here's what I've found as far as potential performance upgrades. Pretty significant increase in HP and torque.

Researching the cost of new turbos is what dissuaded me from a tune. Not that I need one anyway.

It's a single barrel, like other single barrels, you got one that wasn't up to standard. It may get better once it's been open a while.
Yep, that's why I suggested that I might have gotten a bad barrel. Or the whole run is bad. I won't ever find out because I won't spend another $50 on this stuff.

You need to talk to ChiTownDoc or G650. I sadly don't have any hookups.
